BJD Youth Leaders Detained For Derogatory Social Media Posts Against Odisha MLA

Jajpur: Two BJD youth leaders were detained on Sunday for defamatory videos and posts against Dharmasala MLA Himanshu Sekhar Sahoo on social media platforms.

This followed a complaint lodged by a BJP worker, Biswajit Swain of Deulipal village, who alleged that the posts of BJD youth leaders Subrat Kumar Dhal and Manas Mohanty are defamatory and abusive in nature and intended to tarnish the image of legislator.

He had named Subrat, Manas and one Chandan Lenka in his complaint.

Soon, former Dharmasala MLA Pranab Balabantray along with hundred of his supporters reached the police station, claiming that BJD workers are unnecessarily being harassed by the cops. He also held discussions with Additional SP Anirudha Routray.
